Recent work in neuroscience [1]} has shown that individual neurons often do not behave as single spiking units. In fact, different compartments of a neuron, such as the apical and basal regions of a pyramidal neuron, can spike apart from the soma. To model such neural dynamics with a McCulloch-Pitts network, we represent the compartments of a neuron by the vertices of the graph \(G\) , and refer to them as units rather than neurons to avoid confusion.
